Fantastic location, welcoming hosts and amazing breakfast
-
The staff were very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was exceptional, an amazing variety of food to choose from and beautifully presented. It was a casual relaxed atmosphere. The rain... totally out of their control! But we were supplied with umbrellas!
-
There was only two beds side by side, no one queen size bed
-
Everything was fantastic!

Everything . Such nice staff

Small bathroom but what do you expect? It’s a houseboat.

Mark and Anna were lovely, very helpful and also cooked a great breakfast. The location was great, if you are arriving by train and walking there don't go via google, there is a quicker way if you look closely, there's a foot bridge over the canal near the boat, head for that, it cuts the time in half. Happy with everything, although if you are going for a romantic night, the beds are all single, I think and pushed together for a double. There's a bit of a gap in between, plus theres the overhead locker you might bang your head on, but hey, you are on a boat ?

Experience !! Great staff !!!!! Unique

The staff at the property was wonderful! They were very accommodating and friendly during the entire stay. The property is a short and safe walk from Central Station which made it easy to get around. The breakfast was lovely and I wish I could have stayed longer! I enjoyed the cozy rooms but if they are too small there is plenty of space above to relax and spread out.

Everything, the staff especially Anna, thanks for the wine! Next time I’ll bring the pecorino cheese :)

Unique accommodation on a barge boat hotel. Great location in the harbor… walk to train station Nothing . We loved it all. But others might need to know there are very steep/narrow steps to climb to access rooms. Also if you are a very large person this might not be the room/ bathroom for you.

Breakfast was generous, as were the ever- present cookies, fruit and hot beverages 24/7. My room was - a expected on a ship - modest but extremely well arranged. No complaints at all!
-
Such a unique stay! We could see the water right outside of our window.

How unique to be on a houseboat in Amsterdam! Located close enough to the center, but far enough to be quiet and peaceful . They keep the boat spotless. Fabulous breakfast. Owners and chef so friendly, they make you feel like family. Nothing- I loved it all!
